Package: octave2.1
Version: 2.1.69-1
Severity: minor


There are several functions called "incomplete gamma function" in the
literature.  I suggest this patch to relate this function to the
standard nomenclature - i.e. (using TeX) which one of

 $  \gamma(a,z)  $  with limiting value $ \gamma(a,\infty)=\Gamma(a) $
 $  \Gamma(a,z)  $  with limiting value $ \Gamma(a,\infty)=0 $
 $  P(a,z)  $       with limiting value $ P(a,\infty)=1 $

is being calculated.
